Hi Justin,

The error:

mpispawn.c:303 Unexpected exit status

Child exited abnormally!
Killing remote processes...DONE

Following is the link which I was talking about:

http://www.ece.unm.edu/~etanner/MPI.html


This article is talking about memory usage, which I doubt is relevant. The article is talking about hundreds of grid points, which may or may not be pertinent to your system.


I think the above error is because of the PME calculations and changing the grid spacing might work. But I dont know how to change the grid spacing. Do you have any idea regarding that? Or if you think the error is due to some other reason let me know.


I think several of your .mdp settings are inappropriate, and should be fixed before you make any conclusions like this.

1. define = -DFLEXIBLE is inappropriate, per the link I cited previously.
2. pbc = full is for infinite systems (carbon nanotubes, graphene, polymers, etc) so if your system is a normal bilayer, as your title suggests, this setting is wrong.

To fix grid spacing, adjust the fourierspacing parameter. But address the two points above before drawing any conclusions that are more remote.

Also, see the following in general, in case your system is simply crashing because it is unstable. Gromacs rarely exits without an informative error message.

I am attaching the .mdp file with this email.

Thanks for the help.
